Red makeup against the world

Chapter 423
Old Zhong Guogong was a servant of the dragon who followed the late emperor. Like the royal family today, the Wu family is already a big family in Jinyang City, Hedong Road.Except for the family of Duke Zhongguo, most of the clan members are rooted in Jinyang.

This girl Fan Qianqian was picked up from Jinyang City, and it took more than half a month on the road.

Mrs. Chen nodded, and asked again: "The medicine I asked you to prepare, is it ready?"

Mother He hesitated, and said, "It's ready. But madam, do you really want to do this?"

A gloomy smile emerged from the corner of Chen's mouth, and said, "Of course it's true. Do you think I'll let Fan Qianqian give birth to that bastard and let him enjoy the blessings of everyone?"

"But didn't Missy say that Fan Qianqian was allowed to come in just to dispel his worries?"

Mrs. Chen snorted coldly, with a fierce light in her eyes, and said fiercely: "I just want to make him extinct! As for Fan Qianqian, as long as she makes Xu Wan really feel uneasy, she has achieved her goal."

Thinking back then, she was thrown into disarray by the sudden appearance of Wen Yunqing, and she wept secretly.This kind of taste, let Wu Zhengxiang's first wife taste it well.

……

Two days later, Pingguo Duke's Mansion.

The carriages of Tu Manfen and Tu Manzhen stopped in front of the Chuihua Gate, and Chunliu stepped forward to greet her, saying: "You two ladies, please come in, my lady has been waiting for a long time."

Tu Manfen squeezed Tu Manzhen's hand in secret, signaling her to be cautious in her words and deeds, and asked, "I wonder if Madam is at the mansion? It's the first time our sisters come to visit, so we should go to see Madam first."

Chun Liu said with a smile: "Miss Tu is indeed from a scholarly family, so she is so polite. Madam is admiring the flowers, please come with me."

She led the way, and the group arrived at the gazebo in the back garden.

This summer, due to a lot of rain, the weather is not hot.The gazebo was built on the shore of a small lake surrounded by flowers and plants.In this pavilion, I can only feel the cool breeze and the fragrance of flowers.

The two sisters greeted each other politely, and Mrs. Zeng sized them up without showing any signs.

She knew about Tu Manfen, she was about to marry into the Anping Marquis Mansion, and she had met several times in the past.Although she is not familiar with her, in Zeng's impression, she is a well-behaved and talented woman.I saw it today, as expected.

Zeng's eyes focused on Tu Manzhen.She could make her son calm down, which made Zeng a little more curious.

Tu Manzhen is wearing a light blue dress, fresh and delicate.I heard that she will be Jiji next year, and she looks delicate and childish.The only thing that stood out was a pair of black eyes as clear as a deer, full of curiosity about things.

There is nothing surprising about such a woman, right?Zeng muttered inwardly.

"Since Lan'er invited you to enjoy the flowers, let's go and play. You don't have to stay here with me, it's boring." Zeng said with a smile.

"What does Madam say, we sisters wish we could be by Madam's side if we can see Madam's demeanor." Tu Manfen said softly.

Even if he knew it was a compliment, Mrs. Zeng was very pleased with such polite words, and said, "What a clever mouth." As he spoke, he pulled out two coral plum blossom hairpins from his head, and said, "This color is so bright, it's just for you guys." Two sisters, each with a root."

Tu Manzhen took the hairpin, smiled brightly, and said, "What a beautiful red coral, Zhen Er thanked Madam."

Tu Manfen also thanked her, and then Chunliu led the two sisters to the courtyard where Liu Qilan lived.

Seeing them walking away, Mrs. Zeng turned to Mama Wang and said, "Look, how about this Tu Manzhen?"

"This old servant is dumb-eyed. I just think that Second Miss Tu is naive and has no ambitions." Mother Wang replied respectfully.

Mrs. Zeng nodded, and said: "I guess it's because of this kind of temperament that you can get Qinger's liking. However, if you really marry in, I don't know if this kind of temperament is a blessing or a curse."

Her background is not high, and Ping Guogong is a lecherous and playful.Fortunately, she lived up to her expectations and had two sons and two daughters.When I was young, I still wanted to compete in the competition, but now I have lost those thoughts.

Zeng's current focus is on her children.As long as those vicious girls in the backyard don't move their minds on her children, she will turn a blind eye and close her eyes, lazy to ask.

However, she doesn't know how to raise her children, she just pampers them blindly.

I am afraid that outsiders will not believe it if I tell it, the dignified sons and daughters of the Pingguo Mansion have been in a state of being born and raised since the moment they were born.Of course there is no need to worry about food and drink, but education is extremely lacking.

Now that the children are growing up, they all have their own opinions.Take Liu Qiran as an example, whether he has been wandering around all day, or going to the Imperial College to study, the Zeng family can't help him.

Seeing that he will be crowned this year, Mrs. Zeng has mentioned the matter of begging for a daughter-in-law to him several times, but how could he listen to a word?
Now it's hard, he has his eyes on a woman, Zeng is too late to be happy, let alone make trouble.

When she was in the other courtyard of An Guogong's mansion, she asked Xu Wanzhen a lot about Tu Manzhen. At this time, she saw her with her own eyes. She was a lovely woman, which made her very satisfied.But she couldn't help worrying, she didn't know if she could adapt to such a complex relationship in the mansion.

Ms. Wang said: "My son has a domineering personality. Perhaps it is precisely this kind of woman that makes him marry willingly. The Tu family is a noble family, and it does not mean that it has insulted the reputation of our Duke's mansion. However, as soon as she enters the door Even the eldest daughter-in-law of the sect, I don't know if she can bear this burden."

"Who says no? That's what I'm worried about right now." Zeng hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I can only take one step at a time, but being willing to marry into the family is more important than anything else."

"Just, where is the Duke?" Mama Wang cautiously reminded: "On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, the Duke was very angry."

Zeng narrowed her eyes and said, "Is his face more important than Ran'er's marriage? I have my own way to make him nod."

……

In Liu Qilan's boudoir, there were laughter and laughter.

Tu Manfen has a demure temperament and has read a lot of poetry and books. Even Liu Qilan, who has eyes above her head, can't help but admire her poetic talent, and the two chatted happily.

And Liu Qiyun is very quiet, just sitting on the side, staring at the birds flying between the branches outside the window, without talking.

At first, Tu Manzhen rested her chin, watching her eldest sister and Liu Qilan discuss poetry and books.After a while, I felt bored.His eyes rolled and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing this, Liu Qilan smiled and said, "Don't bore Sister Manzhen to death! Qiyun, you can accompany her to the garden. These days, peonies are blooming just right. If it were in previous years, it would have already bloomed. This year there is a lot of rain After a while, the flowering period is delayed, just in time."

Tu Manzhen's eyes sparkled when she heard about viewing the flowers, and she couldn't sit still for a long time.Looking at Tu Manfen eagerly, she meant: Eldest sister, just let me go, and promise not to cause trouble.
